We get flogged in the next 2 games so Richo's got to hope Black, Cooney or Ablett don't get any votes either.

Bartel and Judd have got bugger all votes this year.

If Richo doesn't get up then Blacky would be great. Still underrated IMHO and one of footy's genuine nice blokes.

After 18 rounds

Black    23
Richo    19
Cooney  19
Ablett    19


Richo standing up the back of the room looking pensive lol.

[Francois Jackson]

Yeah i agree Black is seems a real top bloke but does he deserve the medal as being the best.

Im just being biased as i want Richo to take it home.

Reckon we are gonna have a situation here where Franklin tops the count and the hollow victory for someone else.

Why can't they just subtract 5 votes for each game you are punted for?

[one-eyed]

After 19 rounds - Richo survives as none of the leaders eligible got votes.

Black      23
Goodes* 21
Franklin* 20
Richo     19
Cooney  19
Ablett    19

The AFL site has all the names stuffed up too.

Damn Richo's dropped from 4th to 6th.  How can Buddy be 3rd?

[julzqld]

Please not Goodes again

[one-eyed]

Goodes is ineligible Julz.

We win our last 3 games but Richo won't get votes against the Dees. Geelong of course wins their last 3 too. Lions and Dogs win one each.

[Hellenic Tiger]

Richo needs a 3 against Hawthorn and to pinch a vote or 2 against Freo when Tuck and Lids had great games also to at least have a chance to tie with Black at a minimum or win outright. Had a shocker against the Dees in Round 22 so won't poll at all. Hopefully the 2 goals Richo kicked in the last quarter to get us over the line against Freo were eyecatching enough to the umps in a pretty uninspiring game overall.

Please not Goodes again

Not gonna happen Julz. Franklin will win by 2 or 3 votes.

Both are ineligible. Like I say why can't they just add a fixed penalty so that if you are pinged for one game (or accept a reprimand like Franklin did) you start on -5, two games -10 etc.
